Spy Web: International Espionage uncovers some of the most
fascinating spying and espionage stories which helped win victory in the
most harrowing of circumstances. Throughout history, espionage and
covert operations have been powerful but shadowy forces. Hidden deep
within the daily workings of governments is a secret world of mystery,
danger, and intrigue. A world where deception is a form of art. Where
people are never who they say they are. Where the tiniest observation
has the power to save a nation or spark a global war. The world of the
spy is what most of us associate with popular fiction and film but the
true story can be more fascinating, surprising, and important. From
World War I onward, these revelations alter the way in which history is
viewed--and the bravery of the intelligence services--especially those
working behind enemy lines. This is the story of spies, intelligence
operations and deceptions that changed the course of history.

Spy Web: International Espionage - Nuclear espionage - Netflix

Nuclear espionage is the purposeful giving of state secrets regarding
nuclear weapons to other states without authorization (espionage).
During the history of nuclear weapons there have been many cases of
known nuclear espionage, and also many cases of suspected or alleged
espionage. Because nuclear weapons are generally considered the most
important of state secrets, all nations with nuclear weapons have strict
restrictions against the giving of information relating to nuclear
weapon design, stockpiles, delivery systems, and deployment. States are
also limited in their making public of weapon information by
non-proliferation agreements.
